iPhone

Just when we thought we had the ultimate in portable music, there came the iPod. The iPod may have been one of the hottest selling electronic product in recent times. And just when we thought that we had seen everything in mobile communications, we saw the iPhone.

So advanced was this phone, that even it's existence was believed to be a myth until the iPhone was actually unveiled. When it was finally unveiled, it was destined to send most other cellular device companies running back to the designing board, planning to beat this monster machine called the iPhone.

First off, the iPhone beat drubbed most of the competition by offering an advanced version of the popular iPod with the iPhone. That even beat the latest Motorola V3i which offered iTunes with their cell phone.

Since the phone was from Apple, it also had an advanced version of the OS X, first seen with the Apple Imac, which is generally understood to be far more advanced than the operating systems available in other high ranged cell phones.

Among the advanced features the iPhone offers multimedia and internet connectivity via bluetooth and WIFI, though it does not support FLASH or JAVA functionality as yet.

The phone has been heralded as the next best thing for the mobile communcations. At present, it is legally available only with the AT&T network. The two models available are the four GB and the eight GB models.

Recently, a young hacker has hacked into the iPhone and has released it to work on almost any network. However, his hacking requires some hardware requirements, specifically soldering some wires. Latest news is that he has bartered the hacked iPhone for three iPhones and a car.
